The odd looking Wattle Notodontid Moth Neola semiaurata is one of my favourates.

Food plants include Fringed Wattle Acacia fimbriata Brisbane’s new floral emblem.

Caterpillars of the cute Orange Streaked Ringlet Hypocysta irius feed on local grasses like Blady Grass Imperata cylindrica.

Poinciana Looper Moth Pericyma cruegeri
Australasian Garden Orb-Weaver Hortophora sp. The spiders build huge webs like the one I found stretched across the track at night.
Brisbane Huntsman Spider Heteropoda jugulans A welcome pest controller that loves feeding on cockroaches.
Spiny Ants Polyrhachis sp. build interesting nests in trees.
Native Geranium Geranium solander attracts Blue Banded Bees Amegilla
Another successful weed busting morning! Interested in joining our restoration work?
